Some questions about Favorites, layout, context menus

[Ghosty]

I used XYplorer a bit on trial a long time ago.
I'm testing again with the new version, trying to remember why I didn't go with xyplorer....

First, I see I can set favorite folder color on the favorites list, but how do I set all favorite color? They show as bold...

Second, how do I show favorites or recent or whatever as a section under the folder tree? Or is this available only as a dropdown?

The best for me would be as a bar under File/View, it would show "DL Stor1 Stor2 Temp Pulled Docs" Where each item is a "link" to a location, where clicking goes there, and right-drag-drop allows context operations to the locations. The idea is to take the least amount of space while providing a visible and functional tool.

Third, does the right drag context have to be one or the other? Can't I just have the windows setup AND the XYplorer at the same time?

Forth, I like how "desktop" is under "my computer" although techinically it's backwards. It is much easier to navigate the XYPLorer way.

Try the Catalog if you've not already! Best way to handle favorites by far! See http://www.xyplorer.com/tour/index.php?page=catalog

The catalog will work for this the favorites in the tree view. I wonder why it was called catalog... but whatever.

I meant the same thing the catalog does, only on a bar at the top. Breadcrumb path is nice in itself, but I copy the path from there often and found most implementations to be cumbersome, so I'd lean to leaving it a text field and using up button - but more likely, I'd use the tree to navigate up multiple folders.

The catalog was a later addition to the existing favorites (which are still available) so thus needed a different name and since it can also hold things other than just filenames, catalog seems like an ideal name.
